Shocking video footage shows the comedian standing on stage as an audience member charges up on stage and slams him to the ground.
One audience member, Jayvee Vincent, told The Post the crowd thought it was part of the show.
“While watching the end of the show Dave had the mic and as he’s introducing his favorite band to come on stage and perform, some random person charged at him like a football player and tackled him on stage,” he told The Post. British comedian Jimmy Carr rushed to Twitter after the show ended to share a selfie with Chappelle. The comic described the stand-up show as “crazy” after witnessing the attack himself.“
The Hollywood Bowl show with the legendary Dave Chappelle was crazy. Just happy everyone’s ok,” he wrote alongside the image.
